Lyrics

 

SHE’S NO ANGEL

(BALLMAN / ARNOLD)

YOU SEE HER THERE AT THE BAR ACROSS THE ROOM
SHE LOOKS LIKE AN ANGEL
WITH HER PAIN AND PERFUME
YOU’D LIKE TO MEET HER,
YOUR CONSCIENCE SAYS NO
OBEY YOUR CONSCIENCE, TURN AROUND BOY AND GO

CHORUS:
SHE’S NO ANGEL, NO ANGEL
HER WINGS ARE NOT REAL
SHE’LL RUIN YOUR LIFE,
WITH YOUR HEART SHE CAN STEAL
SHE’LL TELL YOU TALES
TO BRING TEARS TO YOUR EYES
BUT DON’T YOU BELIEVE THEM,
THEY’RE ONLY LIES


YOU THINK IF ONLY SHE COULD BE YOUR OWN
YOU’D BE MORE CONTENT THAN A KING ON HIS THRONE
YOU BETTER NOT TRUST HER IT’S WRONG IF YOU DO
SHE’S BROKEN MANY HEARTS AND
SHE’LL BREAK YOURS TOO

CHORUS:
SHE’S NO ANGEL, NO ANGEL
HER WINGS ARE NOT REAL
SHE’LL RUIN YOUR LIFE,
WITH YOUR HEART SHE CAN STEAL
SHE’LL TELL YOU TALES
TO BRING TEARS TO YOUR EYES
BUT DON’T YOU BELIEVE THEM,
THEY’RE ONLY LIES
BREAK / REPEAT CHORUS
